Group:

I grew tired of my stock AMG seats, albeit, very comfortable and warm during the Winter season and replaced them in favor of some Recaro Pole Positions in (Micro) Suede Black.

The airbag sensor mat was installed properly so as to not trigger any unwanted dash "Christmas" lights too.

What do you think?
(I apologize for the poor quality pics, as the sun wasn't in my favor).

They look nice, i bet they save tons of weight ! I was planning on putting BRIDE seats fully adjustable; but, in the process selling the car now... so its a no go. Love the seats, hows the view from the low setting seats? any problems with parking?

AirFrcd

No problems as of yet.
Thanks for the compliments and best of luck with your sale.

Now thats something you dont see to much of on a Benz. I was shopping seats at one point but then gave up. Only because there are to many options and i'm indecisive.

AirFrcd

I will take that as a compliment. Thanks.

The seats look great! As for the "black series" badge though... sorry, "poseur" IMHO.

AirFrcd

Yeah. I am not so sure about the BS badge either. It may very well just have to come off tomorrow AM.

TemjinX2

you gonna see your oem seats..lol?

AirFrcd

Am I going to "sell" my OEM seats?
Well sure, everything is for sale, at the right price of course.

F'in bad ****...What about the brackets? Also, Can you use stcok seat belt?

AirFrcd

Yes, and Yes.
Recaro brackets/seat mounts/sliders, and stock seat belts too.

hooleyboy

Yes thats a compliment. Its hard to find what right for you when there are so many options. They look nice. Recaro makes good stuff.

jturkel

looks good! are those MB star emblems sewed/embroidered on?

how much weight did you save per seat versus the stockers?

AirFrcd

Yes. Custom embroidered MB star logos.
Weight savings = a lot. Not sure how much. Probably no less than 50lbs.

jturkel

50 lbs each! holy crap!

AirFrcd

No. 50lbs in total, more or less...

jturkel

oh ok. still a decent amount. good deal!

Hey Law, did you ever get some close offers from what your asking for the car? seats are growing on me.

RLx02

eh, not my cup a tea for a c55. In a light, more track oriented vehicle yes, but i like having comfortable heated seats with nappa leather

BenzoBoi

SICK!~! I will have a similar set up for the days that I'm at the track. Can't wait!

Quicktwinturbo

Does yours still work?? Back part only works on mine.. n stealership fixed mine like 3 times already..

I really wana get the buckets since stock seats are getting old and it's not very supportive as it used to imo

mkonei

not very "Benz" at all, but then again neither am I. I like them....

AirFrcd

The sale of the car has been spotty at best. I blame the overall state of the economy; the 9.8% unemployment rate; the recent 260,000 job loss in Sept; and our President...
I have so much $ into this car that it would be foolish to stop spending now, right or worse yet, try and sell it at a huge loss.
The closest buyer I had was a Natl Guard who claimed he would buy the car on his return, and has since been MIA - LOL.

I am really enjoying the car, and at this stage just plan on keeping it, and driving it

AirFrcd

Thanks guys, I really like them too.

MRAMG1

If you plan on tracking her regularly, GREAT JOB., and a VERY nice touch with the air bag sensor.

If it is an everyday car, NEVER seeing the track, I would have stayed with the stock seats, just MHO.

Sorry, but I like our multi articulated HEAVY seats. Fixed seats, atleast for me, are strictly for racing use as I keep getting younger, ha, ha

Either way, Enjoy and nice job fitting them up again
